- PSG has formally appealed against the order of the French League Association
- PSG must pay €55 million to its former star
- Kylian Mbappé has said that this sum represents the amount owed in salary and bonuses
Paris Saint-Germain has formally appealed against the French League Association’s order, according to reports in the well-known French newspaper L’Équipe.
In fact, the LFP decided quite recently that the Ligue 1 club must pay €55 million to its former star. As Kylian Mbappé or his representatives have already stated, this amount is said to represent the outstanding part of his salary and bonuses that he has not yet collected from the club.
In any case, PSG does not agree with this decision and has only formally filed an appeal, rather on principle. The reigning French champions intend to appeal to the civil court.
As L’Équipe also notes, this appeal will be heard by the league’s national appeals committee, but at a date yet to be set.
Depending on how it decides, there may be a further appeal before a higher appeals commission, which sits under the auspices of the French Football Federation (FFF).
L’Équipe also reports that it is not certain whether this is some kind of strategy by Mbappé’s representatives specifically. Despite this action in the sports courts, nothing prevents them from taking this contractual dispute to UEFA, but in particular to the labour court.
In that case, the calculation of default interest, which to date has been set at 8% per annum, would be triggered. Given the sums involved, this could amount to approximately EUR 4 to 5 million per year. If no agreement is reached, this dispute will last for several months or even years.
